Post by: hcgalvin on March 27, 2004, 04:07:27 PM: It awakens! Ã‚Â ;D

Still need to finalize some things, get drivelines balanced, alignment, button up the interior (center console area)... bleed the brakes better...

but we took it around the block!!

Compound 4 LOW is AMAZING. It'd take me an hour to get to the end of my street!

Maybe tommorrow we can flex test it... :o

Pics shortly.

Is that a 35" on your spare tire carrier? It looks bigger to me for some reason. Optical illusion ???

You gotta show us some phat flex shots! Go drive on top of a ricer or something. ;D

I think this is the best picture you've got. See those pearly whites!!!! smilen' from ear to ear.

I also like how the shifters worked out. Doesn't appear that the Sami shifter would interfere with the passenger seating at all.

they dono you like I do... he he ..... I cant wait to get a good motor for my zuk.....or maybe i just need to pull the 351M out of the scabby old brown ford t case and all
I took a pic of it the other day but there were too many flies swarming around it for the digi cam to focus correctly
but wait??? i got an idea???
351M in a sammi?
ford rated it as 150hp would the sammi hybrid handle the power through the auto trans???
a few of my presto bds adda leafs in the front??to level it out...
I AM GETTING SERIOUS CRAZY THOUGHTS HERE
HOW MUCH WIRE YOU GOT LEFT IN YOUR WELDER ?
seriously! ponder it and call me you got the##i gotta slege to massage the firewall possibly a body lift if needed ;)

Post by: Kreg on March 28, 2004, 05:57:24 PM: If you do happen to make it up to BC again. Make sure you come to the Island.

I won't be the only one who tells you itÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s a true paradise. Majestic landscapes, Beautiful oceanfronts, and miles upon miles of awesome wheeling! ;D
